The newest addition to our family!

Meet our little punkin seed!

When we moved in about 6 months ago we started taking our dog to the back of our building where there is a little yard and a big rock wall. On top of that rock wall is a lot of tall grass, sticker bushes and trees. There is also a little nature walk behind that. We noticed there was a family of stray cats living there. Well last friday Chris woke up and let Bailey out to go potty around 7am and noticed a baby cat just crying at the top of her lungs in the bushes. He hoped that the mama cat would come back so he just left it at that. He ended up telling me about it around 10 and I just had to go see if there was anything I could do. We went up the nature walk and found the sticker bush where all the crying was coming from and I just new that the baby needed to be rescued. I started calling for the baby and all of the sudden here comes this precious little thing crawling though the leaves and sticker bushes screaming for its mom. It broke my heart :( We immediatly went to the pet store and bought baby formula (kitten of course) and a bottle (also kitten sized) and she just went to town. We fell in love! She is so fun. She nurses every 4 hours and she loves to play and cuddle. You would never think that such a loud purr would come out of something so small ;) She can't be any older than 3 weeks. She is a beautiful calico with some grey in her. She looks like she is from halloween so until further notice her name is punkin seed!


For those of you who don't know I rescued two other kittens about 5 years ago from an unfit mama cat. They were about 2 weeks old. I just love bottle feeding kittens! It creates a bond between the two of you! I kept one of those kittens and here she is, my Baby Girl. Attitude and all :)
